The Quantum Viscosity Bound In Lovelock Gravity

Shu, Fu-Wen

Understand

Based on the finite-temperature AdS/CFT correspondence, we calculate the ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density in any Lovelock theories to any order.

Our result shows that any Lovelock correction terms except the Gauss-Bonnet term have no contribution to the value of $\eta/s$.
This result is consistent with that of Brustein and Medved's prediction.
